 "The most basic question is not what is best but who shall decide what is best."  
 Separating money from the state IS THE FULL POTENTIAL!  
 No it's not.......... if you want to self custody you can do it today, most people choose not to. Adding more features won't change that. 
 I will never stop saying this. ALL elections are rigged as far as I’m concerned because of this... 
 bureaucrats run the state not elected officials. 
 "why Mike sees the centre-left as perhaps the last hope for sustaining capitalism." IDK we must have vastly different definitions of what the word capitalism means. From what I understand left ideology is fundamentally opposed to capitalism.  
 I am generally a fan of Peter's, but when he's got another lefty on its hard to listen. Usually I just skip those episodes.  
 One of my favorites. The audio version is amazing as well.  
 If you use Mullvad, please send them an email and ask them to support lightning payments. They cu... 
 I think u can buy gift cards from them via lightning.  
 they updated the self-checkout at Wegmans and now it's essentially unusable. America's evolving in into a no-trust society.

 I like mistborn but Stormlight Archives is shaping up to be an all timer.  
 Fountain 1.1 was just the beginning of what we want to do with open podcasting and nostr.

 Chapter skip?  
 Man, Fountain is so good now; I’m going to be shilling it so hard. 
 Really? I've tried it a few times and found it missing pretty basic features. Have they added chapter skip? 
 Podcast addict  
 It has 10,000,000 + downloads. Simp much?  
 Yes sounds like a ton of incentives to look at the cons... Maybe start with press statements in good faith 🤣 
 Sparkling water is insufferable.

 I got hooked on it inItaly. it's got to be hot outside for it to really hit. plus most of Europe doesn't have ice. 
 Am I the only one that actually wants to be in a jury? 😂

To my wife and sister-in-law it was ... 
 Nullification?  
 Dude, the amount of Kamala ads on YouTube now is fucking vomit inducing. And they don’t let you... 
 Pi hole won't stop YT ads. New pipe for the phone and free tub for the computer.  
 Yes but then you have to give money to the King of Internet censorship. 
 This antitrust lawsuit Google just lost is good, but man I hope they don't fuck up the punishment... 
 Lol 
 Fucking hate meetings that drag on and on. Let me fucking go! G d it

 Eat the fear  
 It's not a real dump unless it hurts 

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real

 I'm never understood the progressive bitcoiners for this reason. Seems to me their entire ideology is based on theft for the greater good 🤷 
 Btc is slow.... I really fell for that Litecoin is the silver of gold for a while 😢

Do you honestly believe it's possible to get "common sense" regulation? Can you point to one common sense law or regulation passed in the last 10 years? 
 The rant you went on after that was great! Love all the shows! Still haven't joined the podcast 2.0 train yet. I've tried a few but they all seem to be missing basic functionality that I would expect on a normal podcast app.

 Bitcoin magazine has always been cringe. Do your own research. 
 Anyone have a good nix-bitcoin guide? #asknostr  
 Road trip coming up, please shill me your favorite non-bitcoin audiobooks 👇

 Bad question in my opinion. As someone who leans libertarian what would I pick neutral?

 And all those people lobby to keep the tax code as complicated as possible. 
 Holy shit I hate buying cars. These dealerships have laws protecting their business, and we'll just lie to your fucking face like it's no big deal. Absolutely ridiculous!
